[plasmashell] [Bug 433297] Locale-aware alphabetic index/category in kickoff for non-English applications

Since there are a lot of Chinese characters than just 26 characters in English, if you have a bunch of Chinese apps on the screen with a different name, they could be very little chance to have a common first character, as the demo case mentioned in SUMMARY. > If a file clerk is organizing folders in a > paper file cabinet, is there an implicit order that they always use?

No different, in Microsoft Windows start menu, Microsoft Launcher Android app, and LineageOS default contact app, they both sort and category in the first symbol in pinyin. And also, Chinese dictionaries also use the same way to sort and category characters. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

And do I need to open two other bugs to report the Kicker and Application Dashboard behavior? By the way, where can I found the source code of the Application Dashboard applet? And is there a place to look up which applets are in which source repo?
